Kejriwal my guru, will never betray him: Manish Sisodia
New Delhi, Aug 22: Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, in the eye of a political storm over corruption allegations, maintained his staunch support for the AAP chief, Arvind Kejriwal.
Calling Arvind Kejriwal, his political guru, Sisodia said he would never betray him.
"My
message
to
BJP
on
offer
to
make
me
CM
candidate
-
@ArvindKejriwal
is
my
political
guru,
I
will
never
betray
him.
I
did
not
come
here
to
become
CM,
my
dream
is
-
every
child
of
the
country
should
get
a
good
education,
and
only
then
India
will
become
the
number
1
country.
Only
Kejriwal
ji
can
do
this
work
in
the
whole
country,"
Sisodia
tweeted
in
Hindi.
Earlier,
Sisodia
claimed
that
he
was
approached
by
the
BJP
to
join
the
saffron
party.
"I have received a message from the BJP to split the AAP and join them. They said all CBI and ED cases would be closed if I did that. My answer to the BJP is -- I am a descendant of Maharana Pratap. I am a Rajput. I am willing to get my head severed but I will not bow before corrupt, conspiratorial people. All cases against me are a lie. Do what you wish," Sisodia tweeted.
'Person like Manish Sisodia should get Bharat Ratna': Arvind Kejriwal
However, the BJP refuted claims that it offered Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia to join the party.
The BJP and AAP have been engaged in a war of words ever since the CBI raided 21 locations, including Sisodia's house, in connection with the FIR in the liquor scam emanating from the Delhi excise policy that was implemented from November 17 last year but withdrawn recently after the Delhi L-G recommended a CBI probe in the matter.
